    There are a lot of possibilities here:
    • They're a Karen
    • You're incompetent
    • They're incompetent and covering their own asses
    • Your boss asked that person to CC them every time they emailed you or a group of people
    • They don't understand email etiquette
    • They want to fight you

    People who do a thing that they've done multiple times before and are completely baffled by it and somehow utterly unprepared:
    • Store returns
    • ATMs
    • Self pay and pump gas
    • Self checkout

    It's definitely this one. She does it to everyone, not just me.

    'We are experiencing a higher than normal call volume' on every phone tree since the pandemic. We all know that's bullshit.

    I love the companies that give you the "press X to have us call you back at this number" option.

    Yes! Things I love. But not after 10 minutes of sitting on the phone before I get that message.

    People who use the handicap spot as the “well it’s more convenient” spot. No, b****. Your legs work.

    also people who have tags but are clearly not handicapped. You shouldn’t be able to use it if it’s someone else’s even if it’s registered to the car. You are not handicapped. Walk your b**** ass to the door.

    That one really annoys me, especially when the person getting out of the car looks like they they just came from the gym. Some people just don't give a damn about anyone else. If you can walk, save that space for people in wheelchairs, or the ones with severe health problems, who are too weak or fragile to walk far. The others need to just walk their lazy ass the extra yards from another spot. That goes double for the ones who look like they need to walk off about 50 pounds to begin with and aren't even close to 60 yet.

    People who ask for advice for something online and end it with "aaaand GO". I'm not sitting around waiting for you to ask me a question. I'm not quivering at the thought of being able to help you. It's not a f***ing competition.

    The evil part of me thinks about going back to the truck, getting a heavy something, and smacking them upside the knee with it. "Well, you're handicapped now, amigo"

    When they make your drink when you order food to go and don’t give it to you… gee thanks for this watered down beverage.

    Parking in a handicap spot is a towable offense. You could just to tell the business they owns the lot to call their tow opperator

    I see it at the SBucks every day. Never long enough to get a truck out there. I always want to say something out loud but ultimately this sbucks is too frequented by people I would likely encounter professionally haha and I finally broke my stupid coffee (purchase) habit.

    You can actually take a course with the city and get the power to ticket people who abuse handicap spots.

    Volunteer Parking Enforcement Program


    You can actually even take the class online.

    I have no direct experience, but every time I see some a-hole without a tag in a handicap spot, I wish I did.

    Not sure if we have that in ATX but I know the city proposed a similar program for bike lanes.

    Turnabout is fair play. Cc her boss on everything. If her boss complains about it, just say that it seems like she wants to keep everyone in the loop so you’re just making sure that her boss is aware of everything too. Eventually her boss will tell her to knock off the CCing

    The instructions given in every voicemail greeting. Hey, I think we have it all figured out…leave a message at the tone. Hang up after. Got it, Sensei.
